In this paper, we discuss the relationship among the concepts of an S-strictly quasiconcave vector-valued function introduced by Benson and Sun, a C-strongly quasiconcave vector-valued function and a C-strictly quasiconcave vector-valued function in a topological vector space with a lattice ordering. We generalize a main result obtained by Benson and Sun about the closedness of an efficient solution set in multiple objective programming. We prove that an efficient solution set is closed and connected when the objective function is a continuous S-strictly quasiconcave vector-valued function, the objective space is a topological vector lattice and the ordering cone has a nonempty interior.
